It's good, just really wasn't prepared for the content in this book based on the synopsis. Don't read this before reading the content warnings. Also don't read this if you hate pregnancy. This book isn't full of magic, it's full of female trauma.

It broke my heart and put it back together. The relationship of these women across the centuries and the way their stories mirrored and influenced eachother really got to me.
It really is a feminist epic. And it made me want to be less scared of insects, although i haven't gotten very far with that yet.

You should be aware of the potentially triggering themes in this book though. R*pe, domestic violence, miscarriage and termination of pregnancy are strong plot points.
